abuzz during this debate. joining me simon landau, our social media director, and who's trending right now? >> sure. the internet certainly was buzzing tonight, maybe not so much as last week during the presidential debate when we saw so much tweeting action about big bird and jim lehrer; but we still do have some action. what we're looking at right now is the national trends map, and we see that interrupting afghans, voters, weapons, referring to those topics, those major buzz topics from the debate are going on, and it's not quite as active as last week, which can be expected, but there's still action going on on twitter right now >> a lot of folks get into the whole laughing and smiling. i know i tweeted about that several times. >> sure,, yeah, and that was a hot topic specifically around here, you know. people were talking and debating whether that was appropriate action by vice president biden, but that was certainly a talking point as well. >> all right. thank you so much for that. and we have -- we appreciate your time. we appreciate your time, and i think we have some facebook

of maryland campus will open at 10:00 a.m. that's located in college park. >>> billy simons with rusten insurance joins us to talk with us this morning. >> what do we need to know? >> you need to keep your important papers, family medical history, checking reports, tax returns, that sort of thing, up off the ground. get them out of the basement actually. i think a lot of people that haven't had wet basements in the past are going to misjudge this storm, because you've got a lot of wind, got a lot of rain, and you need to get them up off the floor or save them in big tupperware boxes. there are smartphone apps that you can scan it, e-mail it to a safe cloud location. don't get the papers and old baseball cards and stamp collections and that sort of thing and put them up in the attic, but murphy's law says a tree's going to go through your roof. then you've done yourself in. but bring them up probably where you'll be and make sure that for insurance purposes, you've got claim numbers if you, like me, you get a mountain of mail and sort of funnel through it and kind of put it in a pile. go

by simon and shuster, a division of cbs. what do you mean by movies? we know there's new distribution modes coming on. >> i'm a romantic about the theatrical experience. i love going in the dark to sit with strangers you laugh and cry at the same time. people come out of a good movie they are glazed like zombies. they are trying to hold on to that image. my problem with all of these super productions of all the pixels flying around and meaning nothing is it just vanishes. you have no imprint. you wake up the next day an you don't taste the movie any more. it's not imprinted in your head any more. i'm a real world, you know, realist guy. i like men and women together nuclear weapon have a chapter, searching for movie blitz in the digital world. i think it's so true people are thinking i can watch it on my ipod or ipad. you said not the same experience. >> the industry says kids are platform agnostic. think about that phrase for a second. they will look at any screen any time anywhere. i had a terrible time with an ipad because i'm near sighted. i had to put it on my belly, you know. >> then
